LOVE that - a wolf in disguise ! :)

more important than changing food , at this point is that you KNOW the breeder is one who has done all relevant health tests of the parents - that the pup's 'family' have been good sound dogs , and that the breeder's prefix can be found where dogs have been assessed as being terrific examples of the breed!

Uncle Albers is a very cheap food - we used it for years for our working sheepdogs . I am presuming your breeder is registered with Dogs SA ..and has been researched checked out by you ?;)

Have a read of this it may help ? https://www.flickr.c...57633707501537/ https://www.flickr.com/groups/1418686@N25/discuss/72157628026317903/

TENA or POISE incontinence pads would work best - as they are deisgned to absorb quantities of urine almost instantly , unlike menstrual pads . you won't need ones with a huge capacity most of the time - so maybe the liners which hold the most ?

LOL!!

aaah, those brown adorable lab eyes ............ they hide a thousand little evils ;)

Go, Neko! terrific moment, captured forever :)

ivermectin will certainly help . I use probiotics, iron supplements ,and LOTS of good quality food - as much fresh as possible ..and a good variety :)

deceptive :p She can look cute! thanks.

Where?where? :) She likes couches ..and big recliner chairs ..and my bed .... ...

:) thankyou . here's today's .

our family's first family dog was a lab ..way back 50 years ago ... She just was treated like a(outside, mostly) dog ..and we all survived very well. I remember going to town and collecting this puppy out of the freight car - she came from breeders in "the city" ... *sigh* Brilliant kids' dog /nanny -.

We also changed to Barko from Bonnie - and now use dog pro working dog with raw food. and have not had a problem. We have more than 4 - so yes - money is to be considered :)

:) what a wonderful day!

it does have a strong smell - yes. we used that for years for our working dogs - but have now gone to Dogpro working dog kibble , which they do well on , after getting a few bags of barko with weevils in ....

*melts*

Lovely :) Luther is a handsome , sleek boy !

well done :) A story like that needs to be seen . :D

Must admit to feeding puppies a bit like that lady - food is left adlib for the first few weeks - then there are several meals a day provided. We also use supercoat dry , which despite not being classed as a "good" food has grown our puppies well- provides puppies with the ingredients to produce little mini-log poos ..and keeps the weight nice. They get chicken wings /lamb ribs ..and also BIG bones with lots of meat on, so they chew the meat off over a period of maybe a half hour :) Your girl will get used to eating 3 or 4 times a day .. especially if one meal is a nice chicken wing - :) ( I don't use necks, as the shape of them scares me - they can be swallowed lengthwise and cause a blocked throat .) She isn't fussy at all - just reacting to all the changes - and wondering why the food is different . :)

My favourite subject/model/challenge! :) - and the token dog :p

:) On any day , you would see so many photographs which contain items never in the original scene , believe me! If I alter an image - it is usually pretty obvious :)

I cannot lie - they are a part of the app - different flocks can be chosen and placed ;) I do not call this a photo, really , it is a creation .
